Water, Climate and Development Programme in Central Asia and Caucasus

The Water, Climate and Development Programme (WACDEP) in Central Asia and Caucasus aims to support countries to systemise their efforts on climate change adaptation and water security, promoting Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) as a tool for climate-resilient development.

The main focus of the WACDEP in Central Asia and Caucasus will address pilot testing of practical solutions for drought management (water saving) in irrigated agriculture and for increasing water availability in small villages on the basis of low-cost wastewater treatment.

The Programme will be implemented in eight countries in the region: Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyz Republic.
